its not much better here, I had a GTI and My C63 for the same amount of time and i can tell you I think the VW guys are way more respectful at times. But a couple of the guys that caused issues here are now banned so lets see how it goes.

It is quite harsh as said before but i suppose everyone has their own opinion on whether or not it is or not for me it feels just right. i wouldn't want it harder though.

Hi I know this is not on topic but i own an ISF and a C63 the ISF springs are stiffer than the c63 but the dampers perform much better on bumps and potholes... The car tracks alot tighter through corners etc but somehow is a hell of alot more comfortable than my c63 seats in the ISF may have extra comfort to accommodate for the stiffer springs

It's pretty stiff and on a very bumpy road it can be a bit uncomfortable but on 95% of the roads I drive on in NJ it feels just about perfect.

IMHO The 2009 P30 suspension is harsher than it has to be. Other manufacturers get the same it better results with a better ride.

I've test driven one P30 car and one without that package. The P30 was definitely stiffer, but it wasn't uncomfortable ... for the 10 minute test drive. However, I know this would be different over the long term of day-to-day driving.

Unfortunately, that P30 car is a great deal and only has 19K miles on it.....
